About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To show people it is possible to be and live without words.

ABOUT ME

I've come from overseas. From Chile to be exact. My main objective is to develope a significant and rewarding job related to psychology which is the career i'm graduated of. The reason why i leave Chile is because the field i expected to further my career, social psychologist in community matters (development), in practice, it is very disappointing in Chile. All is about forms, forms, forms and more forms so it seems like the passion you've gathered to do your best effort throughout the studying years just starts to fade out among all those papers. I haven't born to do such a boring, unsignificant and useless task. There are exceptions, of course. But the most of community related jobs as a psychologist is about how to set up a management upon the poverty, but not to incur in a real development for the vulnerable ones. So, my goal here is to be open minded in order to assimilate new ideas in a country that looks like to be much more involved in the development of their people. For instance, immediatly has caught my attention the green areas amount through the cities. That has much more than a single outcome in people's life.

PHILOSOPHY

The words must come up following the actions. Otherwise, words and discourses could become so big
